That “Piercing” Look…

Kurt Ostlund returns in Season 2 of Snowpiercer.

Snowpiercer kicked off New York Comic Con with a (virtual) bang, revealing the Season 2 release date and a new trailer during the show’s panel on October 8, 2020.
Season 2 will premiere Monday, January 25th 2020 at 9 PM on TNT Drama.

The show is based on both the 2013 South Korean–Czech film of the same name, directed by Bong Joon-ho, and the 1982 French graphic novel Le Transperceneige, from which the film was adapted, by Jacques Lob, Benjamin Legrand, and Jean-Marc Rochette.

The dystopian drama follows the survivors of a cataclysmic weather event who are rigidly separated into classes on a 1,001-car, high-speed train that endlessly circles a frozen world.

The political environment and the questions that are being raised in the show, reflect questions we are asking ourselves now in terms of how we run a just society, how democracy works, where it doesn’t work, themes of social justice and injustice. A lot of those things in the current milieu are reflected in the show.

The second season of the post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller will follow the revolution’s survivors, led by Layton (Daveed Diggs), as they attempt to maintain peace among the recently merged classes. But an emerging power struggle threatens the already-fragile ecosystem.
